Suddenly, I was pulled out of my dream by a deep voice calling "Mika!"

Chapter Six- Kyo's Pov

"Milk, bean cakes, fish, what else do we need?" I asked myself; looking down at the shopping list I had been given. Yes, shopping list. I was spending my Saturday morning, shopping. Shopping was not something that I did. Ever. It was Tohru, Yuki, or Shigure's job. Not mine.

Inari was listed next, so I went to the wall refrigerator to get some of the rice stuffed bean curd. It's a lot better than it sounds.

"Kyo? What are you doing here?" I turned to see a black haired blue eyed girl standing behind me.

Mika. She was dressed in a black lace dress, with high heeled black boots, and a black cloak hanging off her shoulders. In her arms, she held a small bag, black of course, filled with groceries. Her black hair was loose falling down gracefully.

"Doing the shopping. You?" I asked.

"Same, I had to get out of the house somehow. Besides, my little sister wanted to go out anyways." Mika explained, grabbing a pack of inari out of the fridge. I guess we had the same tastes. She also grabbed two cans of soda, no doubt for her and her sister.

"Where's your sister anyways?" I questioned, glancing around. There was nobody else in view.

Mika shrugged. "Probably just running around on the other side of the store." Seeing my questioning look she added. "Don't worry, she's not literally running."

I nodded, and then went back to grabbing another pack of inari, and then we both headed for the cash register. After both of our sacks were paid for, we headed for the door.

"Come on!" Mika yelled before we left the door, and soon, a small figure appeared next to us.

It was a girl, about twelve years old, and resembled her sister in almost every way. She was clad in all black, wearing a similar but slightly longer black dress, and instead of high heeled boots, she wore ballet flats. But her skin was the same pale color, her hair was the same length and dark color, and her eyes were also the same, the electric shocking blue. The girl quickly slipped her hand into her older sisters, and we proceeded down the street.

"Kyo, meet Sayomi, Sayomi, meet Kyo." Mika said.

Sayomi smiled up widely at me. Another difference between her and her sister. Mika never smiled, but that seemed to be all the smaller girl did, smile.

"Hello Kyo, my sister has told me a lot about you." She winked.

"Oh shut up Sasa." Mika growled, ruffling her sister's hair.

"She has?" I questioned.

Mika rolled her eyes. "Great, he's never going to let that one go, I think you just inflated his ego ten times the already large amount. What my little sister meant, was that I told her we were working together."

Sayomi shook her head at me, mouthing the work "no". I had to give a small chuckle. It was pretty amusing to see how these two together. They were the exact example of siblings.

"Hey, we're going to the park, want to tag along?" Mika asked me.

I shrugged. It was a lot better than heading back to the boring house.

Sayomi happily skipped along in front of us, her black dress always standing out so we could never lose her.

When we reached the park, Mika's sister sat down on the bench, and Mika tossed her one of the sodas, which the girl caught with ease. I guess it runs in the family.

Then Mika sat next to her sister, and I sat next to Mika. We talked, about nothing really, Mika and Sayomi getting into arguments, each of them teasing the other, Sayomi teasing me periodically, just to see how far she could push me.

In other words, I was having the time of my life.

As soon as Sayomi caught sight of the ice cream vendor who was strolling through the park, pushing his cart around pretty early in the year for some odd reason, she leapt up and darted towards the man, pulling out a wad of cash from her pocket in her dress.

My eyes widened. How was a kid as old as her to have that much cash?

Sayomi came back balancing three ice cream cones in her hands. "Here you go, here you go, and here I go." She said, handing out the treat.

I thanked her, and savored the vanilla flavor. She had gotten vanilla for Mika and I, and for herself as well. "You like vanilla too Kyokyo?" She questioned happily.

I was tempted to speak out against the nickname, but I refrained, answering with a simple nod.

We stayed in the park much of the day, before I decided to head home before the groceries got too warm. I bid them goodbye, and headed home, happy for the first time in a long while.
